PEE FACE 



Mount Pleasant, 
Roxbury, Mass., March 7, 1879. 



The coins and medals here catalogued were col- 
lected by Mr. William II. Bowdoin, late of Springfield, 
Mass. At his decease they fell to his heirs at law, 
— four in number, — who being unacquainted with 
Numismatics, and having only a general impression as 
to the great value of the collection, proceeded without 
advice or assistance to divide it into four parcels, of 
which each took one. 

This unique method of division resulted in separa- 
ting series and in breaking up whatever of continuity 
the cabinet at first possessed; hence the breaks and 
irregularities noticeable in some of the proof sets and 
elsewhere, — this sale being made up of two of the 
four shares referred to, obtained at widely different 
points. 

In addition to the Numismatic department an exam- 
ination of the catalogue will show that it comprises a 
very full and fine set of United States Fractional Cur- 



PREFACE. 



rency, — the most complete of any yet offered; also

Stone Age, and of the Mound Builders; Continental, 
and Confederate Money; Coin Catalogues, Books, 
and Pamphlets; Old Furniture, &c, with many other 
articles worthy of notice, for all of which the compiler 
desires to bespeak careful attention and liberal bids.

COINS OF CHINA. 
Note. — The six following pieces comprise a very fine set of the Token 
Coinage of China, issued by the present government about 1853. Our 
pig-tail brethren on the opposite side, did not take a fancy to this sort of 
Cash, refusing it in business transactions, so that it never got into gene- 
ral use, and is now very rare. The pieces are blemished by a small 
extra hole through each ; the gentleman who formerly owned them kept 
his cabinet by screwing each piece to a board, the arrangement of his 
coins being much on the plan adopted by the Pioneer Association of 
California.

1849 1652 Pine Tree Threepence. Considerably worn, but

1850 1714 Gloucester Token. 

This piece is from the Clay Collection, and I am indebted 
to the Clay Catalogue, by Mr. Strobridge, for the following 
excellent description and remarks : Obv. Banking house, 
" Gloucester (Co Virginia) xn." Rev. Linked triangle 
" (Rich'd.) Dawson Anno Dom (1714)." The impression 
unequal, a part only legible. The part in brackets sup- 
plied from a memorandum in the possession of J. N. T. 
Levick, who obtained it from Mr. Mickley, to whom a 
similar piece was sent from England. The cost of Mr. 
Mickley's piece was $50. His was imperfect; Mr. Levick 
says in about the same condition as the present. The piece 
is not as poor as the above would indicate, parts being very 
fine. In fine brass. It is quite obvious from such evi- 
dence as these pieces themselves furnish, that they were 
patterns for a shilling coin. Chalmers of Annapolis may 
have taken a hint from a stray copy extant in his time 
(seventy years later.)
